Powering Up the MPE-7800 NiMH Power Supply
The MPE-7800 Series NiMH Power Supply is controlled by the “ON/Extended Storage” Switch
located on the side of the unit.
ON/Extended
Storage Switch
In the “ON” position, the power supply provides power to the Metro
TM
Series Mobile Computing Workstation systems. If the workstation is not
used for an extended period of time, the ON/Extended Storage Switch
should be put in the “Extended Storage” (OFF) position. The switch
position disconnects the battery from any internal or external equipment
and avoids deep discharges of the battery, which can cause damage to
the battery.
ON/Extended Storage Switch
Warning: Risk of Electric Shock
The Power Supply employs a Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery to
provide mobile DC output power. Low voltage (11-16 VDC) DC power
is available from the Power Supply even when the AC cord is
disconnected from an AC outlet. To remove DC power, put the
ON/Extended Storage Switch in the “Extended Storage” position.
